The Best Way to Get Started with Martha Beck
As far as Self Improvement goes, I recommend that you start with Martha Beck’s
book, Finding Your Own North Star. So what is a North Star? Martha writes,
“Explorers depend on the North Star when there are no other landmarks in sight.
The same relationship exists between you and your right life, the ultimate
realization of your potential for happiness. I believe that a knowledge of that
perfect life sits inside you just as the North Star sits in its unaltering spot.”

The system functions beautifully as long as the essential and social selves are
communicating freely with each other and working in perfect synchrony.

Finding Your Own North Star, Martha will teach you how to read your internal
compasses and move towards this inner harmony. She gives you a step by-step
program to reach your own ideal life and includes exercises, questionnaires, and
case studies to help you along the way.
